My students loved applying the knowledge of empathy compassion and self awareness to what they want to do and be in the first. My kids were able to think about how those characteristics will help them in school and their future careers.

Community Review for The Compassion Project

My Take
I loved the compassion project. The reason I put my already proficient kids on this program is because those were the kids who seemed to struggle with self doubt and anxiety. These students were always worried about doing things “the right way” and uptight about failing. The compassion project helped them self regulate those feelings. And be more mindful of themselves and others.
How I Use It
I used this instruction with the higher students in my classroom while we ran targeted small groups. This engaged the students and helped them learn something new independently while we helped others grasp something we had already worked on.
